ALB — LTA
Text-mined interactions from Literome
Beachey et al., Infect Immun 1979
:
Among a number of potential receptor analogues and other inhibitors tested, including serum albumin, gangliosides Gm ( 2 ) and Gm ( 3 ), lipopolysaccharide of gram negative bacteria, and various sugars, only
albumin and the gangliosides significantly
inhibited LTA binding
Widebäck et al., Acta Pathol Microbiol Immunol Scand B 1983
:
The receptor was stable even when treated at 100 degrees C for 5 min. Binding of
albumin was not
mediated by
lipoteichoic acid (LTA) because of lack of correlation to surface LTA, restricted albumin reactivity, and positive binding in presence of 2 % Tween 20
Simpson et al., Infect Immun 1980
:
The ability of bovine serum
albumin to
inhibit the binding of group A streptococcal
lipoteichoic acid (LTA) to human cells was investigated ... Analysis of the binding of radiolabeled LTA to erythrocytes in the presence of albumin indicated that
albumin competitively
inhibited the binding of
LTA to putative cell membrane receptors, indicating that albumin and erythrocytes both bind to the same moiety on the LTA molecule
